    For what this comment may be worth to a reader...

    1. Read the recipe. Went to store and bought all ingredients.

    2. Result...texture...aroma...flavor...DELICIOUS!

    Personal opinion...make this recipe for yourself. Smell and taste. If it's a winner, pass it on. Annie , Fremont , CA

    I made this when I first saw it years ago after the airing of the pie contest. Just made it again for the first time in a while, and hey wow!..just delicious. I bake it without a crust to make it a little lighter calorie. Just oil or spray a pie dish and pour the filling in. Proceed with the filling and bake times as written, just skip the crust. Makes a great side dish..or chop up some ham or smoked sausage to add in and make a meal. Add your favorite spices or mix-ins to make it your own.

    I made this pie about three years ago and my whole family loved it. I misplaced the recipe and have since run across it in my recipe fiiles and I thought that I would make it again. It was as good as I remembered and just as easy as I remembered. I would though recommend making the pie crust yourself only because I am not a fan of the refrigerated kind. The crust is really easy when prepared in a food processor.

    This recipe is absolutely wonderful. I've had to wait months to make it again, because Vidalia onions aren't available all year and I refuse to use any other. I substitute a store-bought pie crust, the kind that's already rolled out and refrigerated. That makes getting to the eating part a lot faster.

    It's afamily favorite. I have also tried it with 3-4 oz. of cooked ham and 1/4 tsp. of Cyanne pepper. Also very good.

    This sumptuous pie is so incredibly delicious!! I needed to complete it in less than an hour for some unexpected luncheon guests. I used a fridge roll-out crust, brushed it with the egg mixture, and cooled it as directed while I mixed the filling. The only filling changes I made were to add the 3/4 egg remainder making the egg total 3 & 3/4. Also, I did not top the pie with parmesan cheese since I added t/3 cup into the filling mixture itself. For the Last 20 minutes baking at 325 degrees, I tented the pie with foil to avoid over browning. The pie turned out picture perfect and received raves from my guests as they devoured it.

    My husband and I went to a party, and I forgot about the appetizer I was supposed to bring. I logged onto Food Network website and looked for fast and easy appetizer recipes. I love onions, so I printed this off. My husband made it, and we only got complements from everyone who tried it....

    They thought I made it, but i gave my husband the credit he deserved. I want to use it sometime in the future as a side dish....

    This recipe was the hit of the party!!!

    I watched him make this on tv for a pie contest and was really rooting for him. I've made it a few times and it's always good. I stopped making it for Thanksgiving...it seems to be a better hit with Easter ham. I cheat on the crust, I'm no baker.

    I made this for two of my aunts that are excellent cooks and they could not believe how good and easy it was. Can't wait to make it again.

    It came out delicious! I added some sauteed (and drained sliced fresh Baby Bella mushrooms to it, as well. It was a big hit!
